Cecilia (ES) - Portraits and Pictures lyrics

Well he showed me a picture of when he was a child He was all in the nude with a strange looking smile and I said; Good Lord! Wouldn't recognize at all Portraits and pictures of permanent stares Photographs of faces and family affairs Then he showed me another of his mother in lace with a fan in her hand an inquisitive face and I said; Good Lord! She should hang it up on a wall Portraits and pictures of permanent stares Photographs of faces and family affairs Took a look at a snapshot you were dressed up so well 'Twas your holy communion at the "Freres de la Salle" and I said; Good Lord! Didin't you look queer when you were small Portraits and pictures of permanent stares Photographs of faces and family affairs There was one in your year book on page twenty two Look, there you are Your hair is shorter but I can tell that it's you And by your side, say my! Isn't that Silvia Smiles Portraits and pictures of permanent stares Photographs of faces and family affairs
